Summary: Contact‐mode AFM adhesion strength measurements were employed in order to investigate the capability of PBBMA FR as an adhesion promoter in PP composites. The reactive FR exhibited superior coupling properties in comparison to conventional coupling agents such as PP‐g‐ma introduced in reinforced PP composites.AFM image showing the recess carved out by the AFM tip in a PBBMA layer deposited on glass treated with APS.
